My recent life drawing sketches

Hello again. I'm so pleased that, since living in Leicester from April 2014, I've finally got my act together and found some lovely life drawing groups! I've really been missing life drawing although I must admit, I am finding it a bit of a struggle to get back into the swing of things! Here's a selection of my sketches, they range from spending 5 - 20 minutes for each drawing. I think you'll probably agree that there's plenty of room for improvement so it's practise, practise, practise!! : )

About Me

I have had a passion for arts and crafts since early childhood. After studying graphic design at Derby University I was employed as a designer for a screen printing company. Two years later I started working as a needlework designer for DMC. I had found something I really enjoyed and wanted to develop further.
In 2003 I became a freelance needlework designer. Apart from my 2 children, nothing gives me a greater sense of pride than seeing someone stitching one of my designs. I feel truely priviliged to be working doing something I thoroughly love.
I currently contribute to the following magazines: cross stitch crazy, cross stitch gold, the world of cross stitching, cross stitch card shop, cross stitcher and cross stitch collection.
